Now tell me he isn't a chucker?!

Its just that you want an argument.

That's rich coming from the person who started this thread with the sole purpose of asking people to disagree with you. Just look at the title.

Well you've come up with a somewhat controversial topic and made a statement which you believe is 100% correct with no real evidence to back it up, you should expect people to argue tbh.

I didn't make a scientific statement or anything, I just said that he throws the ball regardless of the laws of the game, that were changed for his Doosra.

You can, but then you're obviously not looking correctly, as he is completely legit. Sadly, you're incapable of understanding basic facts.

Sadly, you beleive everything you read. Facts arent everything nixon, reality is what counts. And the reality is that he will always be looked at as controversial because.....

You have no scientific proof at all. Under your definition of chucking, Murali might be one. But the world doesn't follow your definition and the fact is that Murali doesn't chuck, unless proved otherwise. Warne might be better than Murali but saying that Murali chucks to discredit him is baseless.

I dont need facts, use your eyes. Watch him bowl. He bends his arm and then extends it. That is a throw isnt it? And don't say "Every bowler throws then" because they don't do it so its like a full on throw and it doesn't give them an advantage in a contest. But when Murali it does.

He doesn't chuck it. It's a legal action. Why can't you see that? Stop being bitter because he's overtaking your beloved Warne. If Warne himself can accept him as a world class bowler then why can't you?

I didn't know that people were so "I love Murali - he doesn't throw". My aim of this thread was to show the guys here a weird picture, not to start a debate on whether he throws or not.

 

[evertonfan]

But you did, and now your carrying it on. If he threw he wouldn't be playing cricket. He plays cricket so therefore, he doesn't throw.

Because Iam not Shane Warne.

Okay, I understand, and I always did, that he doesnt chuck it (illegally). But if you ever watched him bowl a delivery (particularly a Doosra) and haven't ever thought "damn, that was a bit of a throw".

He does chuck it, why else would he be No Balled, more then once and by more then one umpire for chucking.

Shane Warnes a thrower, he doesn't brake any rules but i can see it with my own eyes

 

[Gilly Fan]

I've known him to be only no balled my Darrell Hair. Who else has no balled him?

Okay. Well then in your opinion he is a thrower

 

[BigCrickNan]

Ross Emerson.

Australian umpires Ross Emerson and Tony McQuillan.

 

[Gilly Fan]

Doesn't everyone throw? Isn't bowling just another way of throwing, except without bending your arm?

 

[Hooper]

Oh and evertonfan, why the hell did Shane Warne get dragged into this?

 

[Gilly Fan]

Because Warne always comes up in Murali conversations. It's nearly always spoken about in each thread about Murali.

Well the whole ICC doesn't think so. Michael Holding of the "ICC's Advisory Panel on Illegal Deliveries" believes Murali throws the ball.
